Trump distancing self from fate of GOP in House

President Trump himself is not on the ballot on Tuesday's midterm polls where 470 seats in Congress (435 in House and 35 in Senate) besides a myriad other offices including governorships, state legislatures, and local offices are at stake, although he has urged the electorate to vote as if he is.

For Democrats, the midterm elections have been a beacon in the dark, a chance to re-emerge from the political wilderness and repudiate a President they view as a risky force.

The writer goes on to optimistically paint a bright picture for Democrats, but concludes with this: "Indeed, the district polls, district forecasts and national polls agree that the district that puts Democrats over the top will not be won by a large margin".

"No, I don't view this as for myself", Trump said, before making the case that his campaigning has "made a big difference" in a handful of Senate races across the country.

"You want to see Georgia prosperity end?" You see what's happening with them.

Mr Trump continues campaigning in OH and in on Monday, before making a final stop in Missouri. With hours to go until polls closed, he harshened his rhetoric on illegal immigration and lobbed attacks at Democrats.

In Chattanooga, Tennessee, to bolster the prospects of Republican Senate candidate Marsha Blackburn, Trump once again warned that caravans of immigrants are on their way to flood across the southern border. He can't remember ever voting for a Democrat but said he might this time in protest. Thousands and thousands of Central Americans marching toward the U.S. -Mexico border intent on entering America has also been a big loser for the party, which asserts their right to enter.

But analysts say a sharp rise is likely this year, with voters on both left and right energised by such issues as healthcare and immigration. "The Republicans have really prioritised filling not just the Supreme Court but also other important lifetime federal judicial appointments". He has pushed forward with the rallies amid news events that would have halted previous leaders - holding a massive rally the same day a gunman massacred 11 people in a Pittsburgh synagogue.

Trump's potential 2020 Democratic rivals were on the campaign trail Sunday as well.
